Tyres - direction of rotation
Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed
to only turn in one direction have the direction
of rotation marked with an arrow.
G021778
The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.
The tyre must always rotate in the same
direction throughout its lifespan. Tyres should
only be switched between front and rear
positions, never between left and right-hand
sides, or vice versa. If the tyres are fitted
incorrectly, the car's braking characteristics
and capacity to force rain and slush out of the
way are adversely affected. Tyres with the
greatest tread depth should always be fitted
to the rear of the car (to decrease the risk of
skidding).
NOTE
Make sure that both pairs of wheels have
the same type and dimension, and also the
same make.
Follow the recommended tyre pressure
(p. 313) specified in the tyre pressure table.
